Abstract

Background: Environmental degradation in the Asia-Pacific region, driven by rapid urbanization, deforestation, overfishing, and unsustainable resource use, threatens biodiversity and local livelihoods. Community-based Conservation (CBC) initiatives play a crucial role in addressing these challenges while advancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 6 (clean water and sanitation), SDG 7 (affordable and clean energy), SDG 11 (sustainable cities and communities), and SDG 14 (life below water). Methods: This study uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to analyze the contribution of local communities to sustainable development in Asia-Pacific, focusing on air conservation, renewable energy, urban aspirations, and marine conservation. Data were obtained from verified journals and reports (2011–2023), analyzed thematically to identify challenges, successful strategies, and opportunities in community-based initiatives. Findings: CBC initiatives have demonstrated success in improving environmental conditions and socio-economic well-being. Local communities effectively leverage their ecological knowledge to implement conservation strategies, leading to better resource management and ecosystem restoration. However, financial and technical constraints remain key challenges to the scalability and long-term sustainability of these projects. Conclusion: Addressing financial and technical barriers is essential for expanding CBC initiatives. Strengthening policy integration and multi-level governance—through collaboration between local communities, national governments, and international organizations—can enhance institutionalization and long-term sustainability. These efforts are critical for promoting resilience against climate change and other environmental threats in the Asia-Pacific region. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study highlights the intersection of traditional ecological knowledge and modern conservation strategies in CBC initiatives. It underscores the importance of policy integration and multi-level governance in ensuring the success and scalability of community-driven conservation efforts, contributing to sustainable development and climate resilience in the Asia-Pacific region.

Abstract

Background: This study aims to find and explain the feasibility of implementing a carbon tax in Indonesia. Carbon tax is a complex policy instrument because it includes aspects of taxation, environment, and scientific knowledge related to carbon emissions. Method:This study uses a qualitative approach through literature study and in-depth interviews to analyze the feasibility of a carbon tax based on the principles of good tax policy. Findings: Based on the analysis of four main aspects of tax policy—fairness, economic efficiency, administration, and coherence—carbon tax still faces obstacles in administrative implementation. The main challenges lie in the limited public knowledge of carbon tax and the unpreparedness of the administrative system in managing taxes that involve environmental and scientific factors. In addition, not all people have or use carbon tax objects, such as electricity, so its implementation can cause injustice. Conclusion: The implementation of a carbon tax can have negative impacts if not accompanied by adequate mitigation. One of them is the potential for an increase in the price of essential commodities, such as electricity tariffs, which can burden the community and industry. Therefore, community readiness, mitigation of economic impacts, and readiness of the administrative system and human resources are crucial factors before a carbon tax can be implemented effectively in Indonesia. Novelty/Originality of This Article: This study highlights the administrative challenges in implementing carbon tax in Indonesia with a focus on community readiness, economic impacts, and the integration of tax policy with environmental and scientific aspects, which have been rarely discussed before.

Abstract

Background: Petroleum has played a critical role in supporting industrialization and global economic growth since the Industrial Revolution. It has not only been the foundation of many economies, particularly transportation and industry, but it remains so today. However, the environmental impacts of petroleum use have become a global concern, prompting a shift to renewable energy. Methods: This study uses a qualitative approach with literature review and descriptive analysis to examine the prospects for petroleum use in Indonesia in the energy transition. Data were obtained from academic journals, government reports, and environmental studies to illuminate patterns of petroleum use, renewable energy developments, and their impacts on energy security and future policies. Findings: Indonesia has large potential for renewable energy sources such as hydropower, geothermal energy, and bioenergy, but their utilization is still minimal. Around 90% of this renewable energy potential has not been utilized. For example, hydropower, geothermal energy, and bioenergy which are environmentally friendly and capable of producing significant energy have not been fully developed. The biggest challenge in the transition to renewable energy lies in changing public perception, as many people still rely on fossil fuels. In addition, the Indonesian government faces the task of building infrastructure that is evenly distributed throughout the country. Conclusion: A proactive and gradual approach is needed to engage the public in renewable energy development and to raise awareness of its long-term benefits. Reducing dependence on petroleum requires strong policies, investment in renewable infrastructure, and public participation in the energy transition process. Novelty/Originality of this article: Unlike previous studies that have focused primarily on energy security and policy frameworks, this study emphasizes the importance of public perception and infrastructure readiness in supporting a successful transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy.
